Twin Spot Wrasse & Potters Angel ?

[Hungriee]

I'm thinking about adding these to my current 37G setup. According to Liveaquaria, these two specimen are both either difficult or aggressive.

Are these reef safe? The potters angel may nip at soft corals, but the only softies I have are mushrooms, and a kenya tree. Will these fish cause harm to my montis, acros, LPS (Frogspawn, Torch, Alvepora) or even my zoos and polyps?

Have anyone had exp with these ? If so, why are they hard to keep? finicky eaters, etc?

Maybe. The only predictable fish is a dead one.

You do realize that the twin spot wrasse reaches a size of over 2 feet!!!! This is a very bad, not reef safe choice.

The Potter's Angel while it might nip at things is reasonably reef safe, BUT it is not an easy fish to keep and most don't make it -- they don't feed well and even if they do the track record is bad.

I say you pass on both.

Is there a colorful fish that I may add to my 37G reef?

sure hundreds of them. A little more info on your setup and current inhabitants would help.
